Writing this post on #weirdweboctober took longer than I thought, but I loved reflecting on the month, and it’s left me with energy and motivation for more personal projects 💜 Hope you enjoy some of my personal favourites, even though I didn’t promote them all here! #newblogpost https://hey.georgie.nu/weirdweb2025/

#WeirdWebOctober is over and I hit my target, producing something for slightly over a third of the prompts. Pretty happy with each of my pages, notwithstanding a few opportunities for improvement that I may or may not come back to later. My appreciation to everyone involved with organizing or participating.
I wrapped up my site this week with some closing thoughts and (probably more interesting) links to some of the most memorable pages from other participants:
-
I invited visitors to my site to add emoji hearts to a page with a click. Here is a time-lapse of their clicks during October 2025. #WeirdWebOctober https://artlung.com/videos/reels/month-of-hearts/
-
I wrote down a recap of my first Weird Web October experience. 'Twas fun.
-
With my final #WeirdWebOctober entry, I wrap up the prior 30 entries with a gallery of what I made. What a journey it's been! Walk a spooky ghost through the gallery! https://artlung.com/wwo/31/

For the last day of Weird Web October—the Spooky theme—I decided to share a couple of very personal stories about some strange happenings. Please don't judge. 🙂

I put together a short write-up on my mostly successful attempt at taking part in both the #looptober and #WeirdWebOctober challenges at the same time this year.

ISO/IEC 15445:2000 HTML (Weird Web October 2025 #30) https://artlung.com/wwo/30/
In which I write a page with a very old #HTML DOCTYPE.
Go make a web page.

Today's Weird Web October's theme is "Surprise", and I need your help. Would you please go to the page linked below and share a random fact about you that people find surprising when you tell them about it? You can be totally anonymous if you wish. Just make up a name. A boost would also be appreciated. Thanks for your help!

Weird Web October - Days 24, 26, 27 & 28 ✅
Only one remaining !
Been a bit lazy on some but overall quite happy to have been capable of completing all of them ! -
October is more a Halloween month, less a "snow & snowflakes" time but that did not keep me from writing a #VanillaJS snowflake generator for #WeirdWebOctober https://artlung.com/wwo/29/

@octothorpes Looks like because of the url structure I chose only my first #WeirdWebOctober entry shows up on the site; despite each one having a distinct octo:octothorpes prompt value.

Full list is https://artlung.com/weird-web-october/

If you were wondering if you could read Abe Lincoln's Second Inaugural address formatted as a series of random HTML tables and have parts grow slightly when clicked or when others click those parts you are in luck. #WeirdWebOctober https://artlung.com/wwo/28/ #Weird #NoReally #AlsoPeculiar

Weird Web October - Days 22, 23, 25, 29 & 30 ✅
Catching up during lunch breaks! -
Weird Web Time! In which eye write a very few words about speling. #WeirdWebOctober https://artlung.com/wwo/27/

I keep having fun with #WeirdWebOctober. Most fun and silly and exploratory month for my #CSS #HTML & #JavaScript skills since I had a crazy boss who had me include java applets, flash movies, css, and sliced up photoshop designs into big Netscape <framesets>. https://artlung.com/weird-web-october/ It also feels very #IndieWeb to me to make web pages for fun.

I've made a bookmarklet for today's #WeirdWebOctober which overlays a mask on any web page and animates it too. Click it multiple times to see different patterns (or, textures, you might say) https://lab.artlung.com/bookmarklet-pattern/

#WeirdWebOctober #25 from me. "Empty"
Alternate titles: Gone in 60 seconds. Terrible Repurposed JPEG. Running on Empty. Homage to Desert Bus. Fast Forwarded Journey. This Ancient Dashboard Still Looks Sort of Modern To Me.

My take on the prompt “bounce” for day 19 of #weirdweboctober has got to be one of my favourites in the past week. Be sure to click that Send button 😆 https://by.georgie.nu/weird/bounce/

Hey look the prompt is COUNTER and so I made JUST A COUNTER https://artlung.com/wwo/24/ #WeirdWebOctober
(And I resisted the impulse to use a cgi-bin directory and write it in Perl).
Counters are bad, actually. But it's all good. Count!

My Weird Web October thingy today is somewhat related to yesterday's. (Please excuse the potato quality photos. I don't have the original prints.) Today's theme is "Style".
